-
Password: Enter the password for the administrator account. This
password is cleared each time you click Update. You must re-enter the
domain password each time you edit fields on this page to ensure the
rejoin of the domain is successful.
-
Enable Support for Large ADS Domains: Check this option to connect
the NSS to an ADS domain that has more than 1000 users and groups.
((This is the sum of the individual users and individual groups.).
It can take up to 5 minutes to complete the domain join for large ADS
domains. When the NSS initially joins the domain, there might be a delay
of several minutes until the domain users and groups appear in the user
interface. This delay only occurs after the join. Any changes that you
make to the users and groups on the domain controller (additions or
deletions) can take up to one hour to appear in the user interface.
The NSS3000 supports ADS domains of up to 8,000 users and
NOTE
groups. If you connect the NSS to an ADS domain larger than this, you
might have problems making CIFS connections to the NSS.
-
System Volume Location: If you checked the Enable Support for Large
ADS Domains field, you must then select the RAID array on which to
store the system cache files associated with the ADS domain join. The
RAID array that you choose must have at least 512 MB of available
space. Note that If you delete the RAID array on which the system
volume is located, leave the domain by switching to workgroup mode,
and then delete the RAID array.
Click Update.
If you configured the NSS to join a domain, when you click Update, the domain
join occurs. The NSS configuration interface displays the status of the domain
join (successful or not successful).
If you are joined to a domain and make changes to the fields on this page,
NOTE
make sure that you re-enter the domain password as the NSS automatically
rejoins the domain when you click Update.
